Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Having ME has changed my life completely. I have had to learn to adjust and adapt. With sadness I had to quit my career as a successful Personal Trainer and cease teaching classes. Each day I fight the black cloud of depression that threatens to take over completely but I hold on the faith I will make a full recovery. Some are not so lucky!
Having a life changing illness has increased my awareness of others who have had to learn to adapt. The physical, emotional and financial impact is incomprehensible to many. For this reason I wanted to do something positive. Take on a challenge I know will push me out of my comfort zone but one I could be physically able to complete.
I met Mark Harding, a former soldier and ABF charity Ambassador, wounded during service after being shot in Afghanistan and hit in the neck.
Mark, against all odds, learned to walk again and lives in daily pain. His remarkable story has bought to light the amazing work this charity does by giving a lifetime of support to the wider Army family, regardless of when or where a soldier served. Providing Grants to those who find themselves in real need.
